"Just leave the delivery at the door."
"It's slippery on rainy days. I accidentally spilled your food. You should check it; if it's no good, I have to return it."
"It's fine, just leave it at the door."
"I've already told you to check. Just come out and take a look; I'm just doing my job, please don't make it hard for me."
I didn't respond, but after that, there was a series of loud banging on the door.
I lived in an old community where neighbors went to bed early. He must have figured that out to act so recklessly.
Unable to withstand the noise any longer, I slowly walked toward the door and unlocked it.
Just as the last bang echoed, a shadow darted into my room.
My neck was gripped tightly by that person, and I fell to the ground, unable to move.
As our eyes met, it was indeed Zhang Xincheng.
"It's all your fault! Now I've lost my job and owe money. If you hadn't insisted on breaking up with me, this wouldn't have happened!"
His grip was incredibly strong; no matter how much I struggled, I couldn't break free.
"Calm down! I can hardly breathe; let me go!"
"I’m going to strangle you today, and I’m not afraid to tell you that I originally planned to kill your dad and take that ten million. I never expected he wouldn’t die in the car accident and transferred all the money to your name. If it weren’t for the money, I wouldn’t even bother dating you!"
"You beast! Let go of me!"
"Tell me! What’s the password for your bank card? What’s the secret of your account? Speak up, or I’ll strangle you!"
"In your dreams! I’d rather die than tell you!"
"Fine, then I’ll just let you die. Either way, I have my ways to get the money!"
Zhang Xincheng exerted all his strength, the veins on his face bulging as he kept muttering for me to die.
Seeing the opportunity, I slowly raised my hand to signal outside the window.
Just before I completely lost consciousness, Liang Anna burst into the room with the police, holding a device.
Zhang Xincheng was tackled to the ground by two officers, handcuffed in an instant.
I slowly pulled out my voice recorder from my pocket and pointed towards my phone recording.
The moment I saw him being taken away in a police car, the weight in my heart finally lifted.
I looked at Liang Anna and realized she was just like me, her eyes already filled with tears.
I had two minor fractures and needed to be hospitalized for observation for a few days due to the shock.
But on the second day of my hospitalization, Zhang Xincheng's dad and mom suddenly came to the hospital to see me, bringing along my grandmother.
They carried large bags filled with gifts, claiming they were there to apologize on behalf of Zhang Xincheng, but their words clearly hinted at wanting me to drop the charges.
" Xiaxia, your uncle and aunt have always regarded you as their own daughter. This child, Zhang Xincheng, can be a bit impulsive and reckless, but after all, he is still a child. You can't let him spend the rest of his life in prison, can you?"
"A child? Over thirty and still a child? Besides, his crime was premeditated; it was not impulsive or reckless at all."
As I spoke, I pointed to the wounds on my body, but Zhang Xincheng's mom continued to mutter, "That doesn’t mean my son should serve such a long sentence. How cruel and heartless!"
"I'm cruel? He set up a trap for my dad! Was it not cruel when he did that to Liang Anna and me?"
"Auntie, put yourself in my shoes. If I were your daughter and had been bullied like this outside, would you still say such things?!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xincheng's mom immediately burst into tears, her emotions running high.
Zhang Xincheng's dad maintained a stern expression and kept saying "What a sin" to me.
I retorted angrily, "Yes, it's indeed a sin—if children are not taught properly, it's the parent's fault. I agree it’s a sin!"
Just then, a strong stench spread throughout the entire ward.
